I have 2 questions about these for people who have used them:
1.) I have 2 books that a friend gave me a long time ago of AAMC MCAT Practice Items (there's one for PS and BS and one for VR and the writing sample). They're pretty old, from 1991. Are these the same practice items Kaplan has from the AAMC, or are there more recent ones that have been published?
2.) When I do the AAMC practice items for PS (my weak area), I do pretty well: 65-70% right, while on Kaplan practice tests/materials and those from other companies I tend to get more like 45-55% correct. I feel like the AAMC passages and questions are much more straightforward. Which is more representative? Are the AAMC practice items easier because they're so old?
